- Ensuring the success of the prepositioning exercise remains a top priority to support the sustainable delivery of food assistance in the coming rainy season. WFP has prepositioned approximately 42,000 mt of food commodities, representing 40% achievement against plans. The augmentation of trucking capacity, especially from the Sudan Corridor, is anticipated to accelerate the exercise, but challenges related to insecurity are significant.
- Activities are on-going to expand the voucher programme in the Juba Protection of Civilian (POC) site. Commodity supply chain management processes, community sensitisation and sectoral assessments are underway in POC1 and POC3. Last week, WFP successfully launched the voucher programme in POC2. Beneficiaries now have access to more diverse food commodities while local traders have expressed strong support for the programme.
- Four of five WFP and UNHAS air assets that were damaged during a hailstorm are now operational which will improve logistics capacity.
